There are a lot of good writers out there. But rarely do I find one who writes with such personality. This being a debut, the level of confidence in her voice is stunning.
The actual plot and story, while interesting, is secondary to everything else. The pacing of the scenes, how every chapter is neither too long or too short but instead the perfect length is masterly. The drama is never petty and forces you to empathize with the characters. The town is a real place that you want to be a part of rather than only being able to read about it.
It's unfortunate this book didn't get more buzz when it was released, but I can't wait to see what Jeni McFarland has up her sleeve for the future. There's undoubtedly a masterpiece in there somewhere.
